A continuous cardboard web (11) being printed with a plurality of repetitive printed sections (40, 41, 42) is run between the two cylinders (22, 24) in a processing direction, wherein a printing length (l) of a printed section (40, 41, 42) is shorter than a circumference of the rotating cylinders (22, 24). Afterwards the cardboard web (11) is pulled back in a direction opposite to the processing direction to such an extent that after a full rotation of the rotating cylinders (22, 24) the cutting, creasing and/or embossing area of the rotating cylinders (22, 24) meets the beginning of the second printed section (41).
